Clips from a different angle, including one of Kurt smashing his guitar, appear on the Nirvana promotional TV special.

It is believed that the show was recorded with multiple cameras due to the existence of clips from two camera angles and mention of a video crew being present in the UK weekly music newspaper Melody Maker.

The jam after "Love Buzz" was the riff from the folk song on the Dressed For Success unofficial CD.

During the "Spank Thru" guitar solo, Kurt's guitar went out, and when he got it working again, the band lost their timing, resulting in Kurt not singing or playing the last chorus and the song ending in noise.

Before "Blew," Krist totally destroyed his bass.

Lower generation and higher quality, but less complete than AMT #1a and includes only the audio from the video.

The audio on "School," which was placed as the first song on this video, is overdubbed from Bleach. Some footage from the "Breed" guitar solo is also used during the "School" guitar solo. It may have been planned to make a music video out of it.

A new stage was built in the courtyard, primarily with the Nirvana show in mind, but the show was moved to the Senior House basement due to rain.

The show was loud, but good, according to an attendee.

During the show, Krist ripped one or two bones off the wall from a sign spelling out "Sport Death" (a Senior House motto) and used one to play half of a song on his bass. He ended up sarcastically apologizing when a few members of the audience got upset, according to attendees.

"Lithium" deteriorated during the second chorus, so the band cut the song short.

"Been A Son" deteriorated into jamming toward the end of the song.

Krist jammed on the Melvins' "Eye Flys."

The venue recorded the show using a video camera set up toward the back of the room with a frontal view of the full band, according to the venue's doorman. He claims they did this with all shows of this era, but the recordings have never been copied.

The power went out multiple times toward the beginning of the show, causing the band to stop playing in the middle of "Molly's Lips" and "D-7," without finishing either song. It also caused them to stop in the middle of "Blew," but they finished the song when the power came back on.

Just before "Spank Thru", the taper did a radio station ID, saying "KAOS 89.3, Olympia, Washington." The show was most likely taped to be broadcast on KAOS, but it is not known if it was ever actually broadcast. If it was broadcast, it's possible that the circulating 25-minute edit of this recording was sourced from the broadcast.

At the end of the set, as the crowd was beginning to leave, Kurt came back onstage to announce a special guest, Everett True. Kurt and Krist then got behind the drum kit and started banging away while Everett did vocals on "Do Nuts."

Notes

During the encore, L7 came onstage with Nirvana, according to the promoter. They may have played "Spank Thru" together, according to an attendee.

The band only played the beginning of "Dive," then stopped so the venue could be cleared of alcohol before they continued to play.

Missing everything before "Dumb" and everything after "Sifting," which cuts out.

The taper also recorded the first set (everything before "Dumb"), but later obtained a copy of AUD #1 and discarded his recording due to its inferior quality and completeness (it had many cuts). It is unlikely that any copies of his first set recording were made.

Circulating copies are sourced from a 320 kbps MP3 file.

Notes

The venue had given out free bottles of champagne to celebrate the new year. During the opening bands' sets, numerous bottles had been thrown against the wall behind the stage, creating a blanket of glass on the stage. When Nirvana came onstage, Krist swept away some of the glass, then took his shoes off to play.

The band opened with "Aneurysm," according to an attendee.

It is rumored that a 5-song recording exists.

Krist was seen walking around with a video camera, so it is possible that Nirvana's set was partially or fully recorded.
